Punch 2 Prime
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.
Did you know that Minecraft still has punch-to-prime TNT? Thanks to Mojang's bizarre approach to legacy support, although it's unobtainable since Beta 1.7, it's never actually been removed from Minecraft (apart from a brief period between 1.13 and 1.13.1). Punch 2 Prime is a simple one-mixin mod to set the default state of newly placed TNT back to punchable! This mod can be used purely server side, without needing to have it on connecting clients.
